02
Export a focused slice
Carry your search, date and engagement filters into the export.
03
Preserve provenance
The video ID is written into the file name, so an export always points back to the thread it came from.
02WHAT YOU GET OUT
Five columns, one file.
An export is really a decision about columns. These are the five that come out, in both formats.

The video ID is part of the file name, so an export always points back to the thread it came from. In the product this downloads straight from your account history.

How many comments can I download?+
The available count depends on YouTube API coverage and your account plan. The comment page labels partial coverage rather than implying the thread is complete.
Are exports private?+
Exports created while signed in belong to your account. A preview taken without signing in is not saved anywhere.
